Absolutely Pleased!!!

By: Marv - Southeastern Michigan May 12, 2012

I've purchased three toys for my blind bulldog recently, and am astonished that he has yet to damage even one.

This dog destroys ALL items we've given him. These toys from WestPaw are totally indestructible as advertised.

The TUX is his current favorite. THANKS FOR THE GREAT DESIGN AND TRULY REMARKABLE TOYS FOR FINNEGAN.

So Far So Good!

By: Kelly Rajkovic - Manheim, Pennsylvania May 01, 2012

Our one year old pit bull mix is an extreme chewer, and she is yet to destroy the Tux. I say "yet" because she has shredded almost EVERYTHING, including the West Paw Hurley; she even breaks off large pieces of nylabones. Though she has ripped off micro pieces of the Tux, 99% of it is still intact, leaving my husband and I are beyond impressed. My one suggestion is not to use this as a treat toy . . . meaning, do not put a bone inside of it (like the picture suggests), as there will be ZERO challenge for your dog. Keep it as a chew toy, one that occupies your dog's time and not one that your dog will walk away from once the treat is eaten. To get my dog to start chewing it, I will sometimes use peanut butter.

Review of Tux, Zisc, and Bumi

By: Dr. Dee - Huntington Beach, CA Apr 21, 2012

Tux withstands chewing by my two "power chewer" Labradors, who can destroy even a large Kong!

It is a challenge to find a treat that will stuff in and take more than 10 minutes for them to get out. I have tried the Kong treats, cut to just a bit too long and wedged into the Tux. Does anyone have a recommendation? I want them to really have to work for at least 1/2 hour to get the treat!

The Zisc is really difficult for the dogs to pick up. I gave it away.

They chewed the end off of the Bumi in about 5 minutes. I am going to exchange that for another Tux.

You will grow to love it

By: Anonymous - Annapolis, MD Apr 18, 2012

Puppy loves chasing the treat filled, bouncing tux. Unfortunately, she does not really play with it unless there is a treat inside, but she's just a pup, and it is a bit big for her. As she grows into it, I am sure she will like it more.

dissappointed

By: christa - California Apr 17, 2012

I was expecting a toy where I can put treats in and was dissappointed that the knobs are actually not hollow but solid. And any treat in the center the dog will pick out immediately and the toy itself is to no interest to any of my dogs. I try to get them more interested but so far not much luck. So, just another (expensive) toy laying around.

Tux is AMAZING!

By: Claire R. - Chicago, IL Apr 16, 2012

We have a 10 mo. old lab who can destroy most toys in minutes. She loves the tux and has barely made a dent in it. Best. Toy. Ever.

Bernie has met his match!

By: Bernie's Mom - San Jose, CA Apr 09, 2012

Wholeheartedly endorse the TUX. Our guy has destroyed every toy, but not the TUX. We're glad it's made in the US too.

Unbelievable!

By: Cheryl Remes - Ft. Lauderdale, Florida Apr 03, 2012

After having guests for the holiday's we received a gift for our two dogs, a lab-pit mix and boxer-pit mix. It was a Bumi and like every other toy we thought it was nice and would be destroyed in a matter hours if not minutes. Boy were we wrong! Three months later they are still tugging and chewing on it. They have been able to get through the ends and I felt it was time for some new toys. As I went on the web site I saw a picture of two dogs playing with the Tux. That picture is identical to my dogs trying to play with the same tennis ball. So I ordered a new Bumi and a Tux. They love them! Summer is here and they run around the pool and drop them in and the best part is "they float" so they can retrieve them not me! I wouldn't waste my time or money on any other toy - Thank you

tux vs hurley

By: sherry - Indiana Mar 23, 2012

The tux is still intact, which is great, as Brody can destroy almost ALL of his toys. He gets really excited to play with his new tux. We can't say the same for the Hurley, its taken a beating to say the least. We ordered the Hurley the same time we ordered the tux. I give him 2 more weeks with the tux, then it to will be toast like the Hurley! At least they lasted longer then any other toy we have purchased. And I thank you for that. He's ruff on toys! lol

Stands the test of time

By: Cathy Weselby - Los Gatos, CA Mar 04, 2012

This is one of two toys that have lasted more than a year with our dog. And it's still going strong. Our Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix destroys every toy we give her--even ones that claim to have been tested on tigers.

So worth it!!

By: Voxann - Texas Mar 01, 2012

Seriously... this product is the toughest I've ever owned for my dog. She LOVES the toy and is unable to destroy it. She has destroyed many other toys and I had felt frustrated, wasting my money on new toys. I had googled out of despair, trying to find the toughest toy out there. All the toys at petsmart or petco is really crappy! I came across this website and after reading all those reviews, I felt it should be worth it. Thank you so much for your great reviews that helped me feel confident in purchasing this great product!!

West Paw Toy Review

By: Adrianne - Jackson, MS Feb 26, 2012

Rusty (a Golden Retriever mix) loves all 3 of the toys I got for him from West Paw. Sometimes he can't make up his mind which one he wants to chew on so all 3 are being chewed on/played with simultaneously.

"The Tux"

By: Al Esposito - Amherst, NY, !4228 Feb 13, 2012

It took my Jack Russel about a week and half to start the demise of the toy. That being said it is the longest lasting toy he has ever had. I am not in favor of shipping it back cuz I'd like to see how long it does last. Would you suggest another style??????? He weighs in at 25#. Thanks AL

AMAZING

By: Anonymous - northern kentucky Feb 06, 2012

Sophie destroyed every toy within 15 minutes - she has had the TUX for 2 weeks and hasn't made a mark on the thing. Would love more items in the same material.

It does the trick.

By: labowner - Providence, RI Feb 05, 2012

This is the only toy besides the black Kong that our dog does not chew through on the first go-round. It is the perfect size to fill with peanut butter and treats. I have several, which I fill ahead of time and pop into the freezer. I never worry about this toy.

Satisfied the Monster

By: Bob and Jessie - Milwaukee, Wisconsin Jan 29, 2012

Like most chocolate lab puppies, our 10 month old destructo-saurus rex only knows one way to play with a toy: mercilessly disembowel it. We have been through dozens of toys, many of which met their untimely demise within just a few minutes. I was skeptical when we handed her the Tux, but its been two whole weeks - the longest we have ever had any toy - and there still arent any significant signs of wear. She chews it and carries it around constantly, and especially likes when we stuff a treat in the bottom and toss it for her. Were already talking about buying another one so there can always be one waiting in the freezer with peanut butter in it!

Love this toy

By: Katie - Prescott Valley, AZ Jan 27, 2012

Love this toy!! I have two dogs, one who is a pit bull mix that manage to destroy any toy I buy them in less than an hour. I got this toy as a Christmas present for them and it is still in perfect condition. I am a fan of you guys and will only be getting my toys from there. I also love that they float and are dishwasher safe. Thanks for the great product!!!

Not quite tough enough

By: Bruno - 3 yr old Pitt/Boxer - Central Pennsylvania Jan 24, 2012

I thought we had finally found a toy for our 3 yr old Pitt/Boxer. Unfortunately after a couple hours of chewing, he got to the point where he was ripping large chunks off that posed a chocking hazard and we had to take it away. I don't thinkthe Zogoflex toys are quite as strong as the Kong Extreme brand, as that still seems to be the only thing that holds up for more than a few hours.

Amazing!!

By: Jenn Petrusha - Magna, Ut Jan 23, 2012

This thing is AWESOME. Chaco is a PitBull/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Safe to safe - he is a CHEWER!! His first WestPaw toy was the Bumi - he adored it. But he got the ends chewed off in about a week or so. He has been slowly whittling it down over the last year. I saw the Tux and thought we would give it a try. I think what makes it perfect is that it's the Zogoflex design - but solid end pieces. He can chew and chew but because he can't get his jaw around it - it's holding up and he loves it!! He tried to use it like a tennis ball but it doesn't quite have the same 'bounce' lol.

We are a West Paw family now and love your product!!

Trillion times stronger than a kong

By: Sam - Bozeman, MT Jan 22, 2012

My 25lb. Jack Russel/King Charles mutt can chew through the burliest Kong toys in minutes, so I was skeptical when I first brought the Tux home. This toy is FANTASTIC! The first one he had took him months of consistent chewing to make a dent in. I got him a new one and, try as he might, it's still hanging tough. I think the shape is really smart because he can't get tiny little nippy bites on it, which is usually how he tears things apart. I will continue to buy these and I hope they'll always be in production!

High hopes shot down

By: Kyle Helms - Middle Tennessee Jan 08, 2012

I bought this having high hopes due to all the great comments on this product. After less than one hour, my 10 month old beagle/american pointer mix, had already started ripping off chunks from the nubs. My hopes were that this toy would be able to stand his constant desire to chew. After one week the toy is still intact but all 3 nubs have been chewed down by half. I give it 3 stars but will be sending back for a replacement.

So far so good

By: Anonymous - ohio Jan 03, 2012

I just bought this for my two dogs for christmas. We have one who wants to chew everything to shredds!! I have faith this toy will withstand his chewing for the long haul, it seems tough!

A great dog toy

By: Annette - Pittsburgh, PA Jan 02, 2012

After our 9-month old German Wirehaired Pointer destroyed her umpteenth chew toy, I search the web for an "indestructible" dog toy and the Tux popped up. I read the reviews and gave it a try. She loves it and has not destroyed it after 3 weeks. Other toys last only a few days with her. I think it's a keeper.

I was shopping online for a

By: Steven Bayer - United States Dec 31, 2011

I was shopping online for a durable toy for my son's dog when I found West Paw. I ordered the Tux and it's been a great toy that my son can load with a snack that his dog enjoys.

Tux is very Tuff

By: JP - United States Dec 31, 2011

Our dogs usually DESTROY any new chew toy within a matter of hours. Tux has withstood the test of time (and teeth), not even a mark on him yet! We put some kibble or peanut butter instead and keeps the occupied, it also bounces all kinds of crazy so our Corgie loves it! Highly recommend!

Shipping was super fast, during the Christmas holiday rush to boot!

Best dog toys!

By: Ashley - Boston, MA Dec 28, 2011

Our dog has yet to put a dent in his awesome new toys and we have a little guy who can gut a stuffed animal in less than a minute. They are durable and he really loves playing with them!

The best toy EVER!!!!!!

By: Kathy Stearn - Palm Bay, FL Oct 20, 2011

This is the greatest toy EVER. The longest any other toy has lasted in one piece is 17 minutes, Marley, my PitBull has had his toy for 5 days and it is still in one piece. Marley loves the Hurley he has it all the time. I truly think this is the BEST>!!
